2. THE SENSE OF TOUCH

Among the full-word Robot AI Mind namespaces suggested at
http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/M/ME/MENTIFEX/mind.txt
and duly incorporated within the aLife artificial life module, the
Sensorium module expands to the following sub-modules as
enumerated on page 122 of the AI4U robot AI textbook:
audRecog -- auditory Recognition for a sense of hearing;
gusRecog -- gustatory Recognition for a sense of taste;
olfRecog -- olfactory Recognition for a sense of smell;
tacRecog -- tactile Recognition for a sense of touch;
visRecog -- vision Recognition for any sense of vision.
